+
+@item Purpose: Requests that Bison allow unreachable parser states to remain in
+the parser tables.
+Bison considers a state to be unreachable if there exists no sequence of
+transitions from the start state to that state.
+A state can become unreachable during conflict resolution if Bison disables a
+shift action leading to it from a predecessor state.
+Keeping unreachable states is sometimes useful for analysis purposes, but they
+are useless in the generated parser.
+
+@item Accepted Values: Boolean
+
+@item Default Value: @code{"false"}
+
+@item Caveats:
+
+@itemize @bullet
+
+@item Unreachable states may contain conflicts and may use rules not used in
+any other state.
+Thus, keeping unreachable states may induce warnings that are irrelevant to
+your parser's behavior, and it may eliminate warnings that are relevant.
+Of course, the change in warnings may actually be relevant to a parser table
+analysis that wants to keep unreachable states, so this behavior will likely
+remain in future Bison releases.
+
+@item While Bison is able to remove unreachable states, it is not guaranteed to
+remove other kinds of useless states.
+Specifically, when Bison disables reduce actions during conflict resolution,
+some goto actions may become useless, and thus some additional states may
+become useless.
+If Bison were to compute which goto actions were useless and then disable those
+actions, it could identify such states as unreachable and then remove those
+states.
+However, Bison does not compute which goto actions are useless.

+
+@item namespace
+@findex %define namespace
+
+@itemize
+@item Languages(s): C++
+
+@item Purpose: Specifies the namespace for the parser class.
+For example, if you specify:
+
+@smallexample
+%define namespace "foo::bar"
+@end smallexample
+
+Bison uses @code{foo::bar} verbatim in references such as:
+
+@smallexample
+foo::bar::parser::semantic_type
+@end smallexample
+
+However, to open a namespace, Bison removes any leading @code{::} and then
+splits on any remaining occurrences:
+
+@smallexample
+namespace foo @{ namespace bar @{
+  class position;
+  class location;
+@} @}
+@end smallexample
+
+@item Accepted Values: Any absolute or relative C++ namespace reference without
+a trailing @code{"::"}.
+For example, @code{"foo"} or @code{"::foo::bar"}.
+
+@item Default Value: The value specified by @code{%name-prefix}, which defaults
+to @code{yy}.
+This usage of @code{%name-prefix} is for backward compatibility and can be
+confusing since @code{%name-prefix} also specifies the textual prefix for the
+lexical analyzer function.
+Thus, if you specify @code{%name-prefix}, it is best to also specify
+@code{%define namespace} so that @code{%name-prefix} @emph{only} affects the
+lexical analyzer function.
+For example, if you specify:
+
+@smallexample
+%define namespace "foo"
+%name-prefix "bar::"
+@end smallexample
+
+The parser namespace is @code{foo} and @code{yylex} is referenced as
+@code{bar::lex}.
